INTRODUCTION

This is a list of FCC license data sources available to scanner hobbyists.
The FCC master contains a wealth of data about every non-government license
in the United States (over three million records). Most of the sources
listed contain a subset of this data, although a few contain all or nearly
all of it. Government licenses are not administered by the FCC, and the
data is not available to the public.

If you are interested in purchasing FCC data, you might want to consider
forming a co-op of people in your area to share the cost. As far as I can
tell, this is legal since the information is in the public domain.
However, the software supplied to view or manipulate the data is usually
copyrighted and must be purchased separately by each user.

Prices are rounded to the nearest dollar and include shipping, if known.

C.E.T.

CET sells records of all stations inside a 30-mile radius for $80. (Major
cities cost extra.) A 70-mile search costs $178. The data is provided on
floppy disks and is available in ASCII columnar and comma-delimited
formats.

CET does not provide data for licenses that do not contain specific
geographic coordinates (i.e., mobile-only systems) or specific operating
frequencies (e.g., amateur radio).

To do the search, CET requires the latitude and longitude of the center of
the 30-mile radius. I calculated mine from a USGS topographic map I
obtained at a local nautical supply store. Alternatively, you can obtain
the coordinates for your town from the University of Michigan's geographic
name server. Run "telnet 141.212.99.9 3000" and enter your zip code. For
my area, the server returned the coordinates of the main post office.

CET can be reached at 800-445-0297.

GROVE

Grove sells FCC data on CD-ROM and floppy. The CD-ROM covers the entire US
and is available with or without mapping support. The mapping version
brings up a map with the requested station plotted on it. The regular
version is $103, and the mapping version is $173.

Floppies are available by state for $43 per state (add $10 for CA, FL,
TX). The disk comes with a database search program. Grove Enterprises can
be reached at 800-438-8155.

MICROFICHE

The Bearcat Radio Club sells the FCC master by state for $15. Bearcat
Radio Club can be reached at P.O. Box 291918, Kettering OH, 45429.

PERCON

PerCon sells FCC data on CD-ROM. The Spectrum CD covers the entire US and
comes with a simple database search program. The US Index CD also covers
the entire US but comes with a more powerful database manager. Regional
CDs cover subsets of the US but provide more detail about each license.
Finally, the mother of all databases is the seven-CD Frequency Set, with
data organized by frequency.

Spectrum costs $37, the US Index is $87, regional CDs are $107 each ($465
for the complete five-disc set), and the Frequency Set is $1515. Data is
updated quarterly (the latest data is from Nov 94). PerCon can be reached
at 716-386-6015 (voice), 716-386-6013 (fax), or Perg...@aol.com (email).

POLICE CALL

This is probably the most cost-effective source of public service license
information. The detail is limited, but the information that is there is
often more useful than the FCC master. For example, an entry in Police
Call that reads, "Portland Police, Net 3, North Precinct," reads,
"Portland, City of" in the master.

Police call is available in 9 volumes covering different regions of the
US. It can be purchased at Radio Shack stores for $10 per volume.

RADIOMAP SERVICE

Developed by long-time Usenet contributor Bob Parnass, this service
provides a custom report of frequencies, callsigns, and licensee names for
a specified area in any of the 50 states. Coverage areas of 4 to 256
square miles will be chosen by Bob depending on transmitter site density.
The report includes a color plot with transmitter sites marked.

To create the report, Bob requires the latitude and longitude (or nearest
street intersection) of the center location. Reports are $26 each. Write
to Bob Parnass at 2350 Douglas Rd, Oswego, IL, 60543, or call him at
708-554-3839 between 6-10 PM central time.

SCANWARE ASSOCIATES

ScanWare Associates sells a PC-based database program called the FCC
Frequency Retrieval System V2.x. It comes with FCC data for one state,
covering all services and all frequencies. Data is updated approximately
every six months (last update was Dec 94).

Cost is $35 for the first state and $20 for each additional state. Updates
cost $30 per state. (Add $5 for CA, FL, TX, NY.) Quantity discounts
available. Fully working shareware copy downloadable from their BBS at
206-871-4228 (FCC200.ZIP). ScanWare Associates can be reached at
206-698-1383 (voice) or 206-698-8207 (fax).

US SCANNER PUBLICATIONS

Similar in style to Police Call, this series of directories covers ALL
radio services between 30 MHz and 2 GHz. Each volume covers one state and
costs between $14 and $29, depending on the state. The volume for
California is 820 pages. Contact US Scanner publications at 800-890-6999
(voice) or 503-233-5176 (fax).

>>>> HCJB's ANDEAN HERALD 95/9 <<<<

Welcome to the ANDEAN HERALD, the program news from HCJB's
English Language Service being released from Quito, Ecuador,
6 July 1995.

Our Verse for the Week:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ Anyone who claims to be in the light, but hates his +
+ brother is still in the darkness. 1 John 1:9 +

Friday, July 7:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Join Colin Lowther for ONLINE today as the boot's on the other
foot when we discover who made the very rugby boots, we
celebrate the 25th anniversary of a UK wildlife park, and did
you know someone is re-writing the music for Verdi's grand opera
'Aida'? He's a pop star, and you'll find out his name if you
tune in today! Send your comments about the programme to:
onl...@hcjbuk.gn.apc.org

STUDIO NINE today is TRAVEL LATIN AMERICA with hostess Fiona
Cline on a special program on transportation. Topics are
traveling Latin America by bus and the dangerous Combi-Vans in
Peru.

On MUSICA DEL ECUADOR, host Jorge Zambrano presents songs from
his own family. Come along with Jorge Zambrano and the Zambrano
family for half an hour of Ecuadorian music.

Saturday, July 8:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DX PARTYLINE has a full line-up today which includes an
interview with Christer Brunstrom, a visiting Swedish DXer here
in Ecuador, ODXA Perspectives, details on the 1996 ODXA
Convention, the EDXC report, and a lot of DX news. Richard and
Lisa McVicar are your DX hosts, today on DX PARTYLINE!

SOLSTICE is hosted by 20 year old Ashley Field and 18 year old
Hayley Coates. Unlawful vandalism and graffiti is often seen in
our cities, including on public transport. Today on SOLSTICE,
we meet Noel Buchanan. His life is built on reaching out to
perpetrators of these crimes in Melbourne Australia, helping
them to get on top of difficult personal issues.

MORNING IN THE MOUNTAINS today is a fun wake-up programme filled
with great music, greetings and conversation, as well as some
challenging devotional pieces. On today's program, we listen to
an interview with Tonny Tamayo. Who is he? Join Tania Manners
and Melanie DeJanon today to find out.

It's Lisa, Tania, Chuck and Ken who gather around the control
board to eat Lisa's famous banana-chocolate chip cup cakes and
read listeners' letters. Tania has some thoughts about "letting
go,", there is good music and a lot of fun. Join us for MUSICAL
MAILBAG today!

How can the people of this old troubled world make it if
would-be leaders aren't even sure the effort is worth it? An
international organization is using the phrase, "Operation
Determined Effort." Do you see that happening? Let's check on
it together with Paul Bell today on WHAT IN THE WORLD.

Sunday, July 9:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Music is highlighted in today's SALUDOS AMIGOS on HCJB. In
response to a question from a listener, host Ken MacHarg plays
two versions of HCJB's theme song, "Great is Thy Faithfulness",
plus the various sounders and use of that theme on HCJB. In
addition, Ken talks about the pursuit of happiness and plays a
happiness medley by Suzanne Johnson. Listener letters today on
SALUDOS AMIGOS come from England, Canada, the USA and Australia.

On HCJB TODAY, Jim Allen talks with former Quito staff member
and current Australian representative, Charles Gray. We think
you'll enjoy listening in as this exuberant, fun person shares
about his travels in the land down under representing HCJB.

A conspiracy to kill a perceived political opponent is afoot in
the scenes we view on GLORIOUS INTENTIONS today, hosted by Paul
Bell. Who is at fault? You get to sift the evidence, decide
for yourself, and view a glad result out of all the grief.

On MOUNTAIN MEDITATIONS, Jim Allen takes a look at "Imitating
Christ in our Organizational Relationships". We will seek to
answer the question, "How should a Christian behave in his or
her work when the boss is unfair, or things are not as one would
want them to be?"

Monday, July 10:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Horace Easterling and Mark Irwin are your hosts on YOU SHOULD
KNOW as they focus in on the topic of AIDS.

We visit to Latin American countries on STUDIO NINE today: in
Guatemala, we'll be looking at the Mayan Sites, and in Brazil,
we learn about the restriction of colonial architecture.

Join Chuck Swindoll on today for INSIGHT FOR LIVING. The topic
for the programs on Monday and Tuesday is "Joyful Reunion -
Insightful Response".

Tuesday, July 11:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today on BLUES RAGS AND ALL THAT JAZZ, Bill Rapley takes a look
at the life, times and music of self-styled 'King of Jazz' and
world's greatest hot tune writer - Jelly Roll Morton. Join Bill
for a feast of Jelly Roll's music. You can contact Bill direct
at: b...@hcjbuk.gn.apc.org

On STUDIO NINE's history feature today, host Curt Cole brings a
report on blacks in South America. And there is information
about trouble in Vilcabamba, the city of long life.

On today's edition of "The Computer Corner" on EL MUNDO FUTURO,
we will hear of hardware upgrades to improve system performance;
about Hewlett-Packard, yesterday and today; and how to improve
customer service by linking phone communications with computer
information systems. Other topics on our journey of The Future
World of science and technology include gene research linked to
colon cancer, the discovery of "sprites" over storms outside the
United States, how nature lends a hand on paint research, and,
on "Imagine That", why your toast always lands butter side down
when it falls! Allen Graham hosts today's EL MUNDO FUTURO.
